As OBOZ.UA reminds, Euro NCAP used new cars in a series of rigorous crash tests. The 6th generation Subaru Forester crossover received a 5-star rating.
Protection of adult passengers was rated at 83%, children - 89%. The safety of pedestrians and cyclists was rated at 86%, and the work of electronic assistants - 72%.
Earlier, the 6th generation Subaru Forester hybrid was spotted in the US during road tests. The crossover will appear in mid-2025. Its design is based on a 2.5-liter internal combustion engine and an electric motor with a Toyota battery. This will be Subaru's first hybrid since 2023.
By itself, the Subaru Forester crossover with a 2.5-liter engine offers 180 hp. Obviously, the output will increase as part of a hybrid system.
